We still don’t know for sure that more collisions happen at green buildings, but we notice that LEED-certified buildings have a lot of glass, and we now know that glass area is the bets predictor of collisions. Our Duke bird-window collisions team is currently investigating how green certification affects collisions, and we will soon know the answer. Ultimately, I would like to see green building certifications require glass to be bird-safe.
